Seite 335 - V. Establish the correctness of all apparatus used in the test for weighing and measuring. These are : 1. Scales for weighing coal, ashes, and water. 2. Tanks, or water meters for measuring water. Water meters, as a rule, should only be used as a check on other measurements. For accurate work, the water should be weighed or measured in a tank. 3. Thermometers and pyrometers for taking temperatures of air, steam, feed-water, waste gases, etc.
